JS Dojo

You can actually use Vuejs instead of jQuery for simple cases (you can't use React). https://medium.com/js-dojo/vue-js-is-easier-to-learn-than-jquery-abbbb…

It felt like a nightmare to see the gigantic dependency tree inside the "node_modules" folder. I felt relieved when I found that Vue.js Components don't need to be compiled [1]. I also found this article interesting [2] with information on different approaches.
